MODEL 

282TP 

Mouse Emitter, Twin Plug  

 

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 

 
 
DESCRIPTION 

The 282TP "Twin-Plug" Emitter is based on Xantech's 
standard 282M Mouse emitter with two 3.5mm Mono-
Mini plugs each with 'diode' isolation. The twin plug feature 
allows a single emitter to be shared by two IR sources. For 
instance, one mouse emitter can now be connected to both 
an IR receiver and a Xantech Multi-Zone Controller without 
having to place two emitters on the front of the IR 
Controllable component.

 

  

Internally, the 282TP contains components that are 
designed to keep the IR signal path directed towards the 
emitter only, allowing both control systems to be completely 
isolated. The plugs are gold plated to increase durability 
and connectivity

.

Each emitter has a clear adhesive layer on the bottom 
flat surface of the shell. The rounded side faces the 
user and emits visible light when a command is sent.  
Simply peel off the adhesive cover and affix the emitter 
to the center of the IR sensor window on the controlled

control of the equipment from a handheld remote as 
well as from the 282TP.

 

 
CONNECTING THE EMITTERS 

Simply insert the mono mini plug of the 282TP emitter 
into the “EMITTERS” or “OUT” jacks on any of the 
Xantech Connecting Blocks or Controllers.

 

CAUTION: 

DO NOT plug emitters into the IN/OUT or 

HIGH OUT jacks on the 790-00 and 791-44 
Connecting Blocks

.

 To do so will destroy the emitters!

 

The 282TP mouse emitter will also indicate the 
presence of stray IR or RF interference by randomly 
blinking when no IR control signal is being sent. 
Reposition the IR receiver of the interfering source to 
eliminate or reduce the random blinking. The more the 
random blinking is reduced, the better the system will 
function.

 

An 

optional

 shield, available from Xantech as model 

MS-1

, fits over the emitter head and the sensor window 

of the controller component.  

INSTALLATION SETUP #1:  
Home Theater \ Multi-room Controller 

The setup below shows two IR signals connected to a 
single source. This allows the source to be controlled from 
two areas. One mono plug goes to the connecting block. 
The other mono plug is connected to the MRC44 Controller.   

 
INSTALLATION SETUP #2: 
Expanded Multi-room Controller 

The setup below shows two MRAUDIO4X4 Controllers 
connected in Expansion mode. Expansion mode doubles 
the number of zones while using the same number of 
sources. The benefit of the 282TP is that you only need to 
place one emitter at each source. One mono plug is 
connected to the ‘master’ controller. The other mono plug is 
connected to the ‘slave’ controller. This application can 
apply to the entire product line of Xantech controllers.
